David and I were thrilled to not only get to photograph Kathleen & Chris's wedding but their rehearsal dinner as well. It truly was a stunning rehearsal dinner that was filled with laughter, tears, and lots of hilarious speeches. 

Kathleen & Chris's rehearsal dinner took place at the Jefferson Hotel in Richmond, Virginia. The tables were so beautifully set with with gorgeous ceterpieces, name cards, and gem toned purple napkins. My favorite detail was that all of the tables were numbered using old photos of the bride and groom. The groom's mother had an amazing custom cake made by Cakes by Graham that replicated their family's beach house and love for PBR beer.

During the dinner, a slide show of the bride and groom growing up played to some of their favorite songs. The father of the groom started off the speeches, and this is when the tears started to fall. All of the speeches started off on an emotional tone, but once the groomsmen started to give speeches, laughter ensued. It truly was such an exceptional rehearsal dinner, and we were so glad to be a part of it. 

Be sure to check back in the next few weeks to see photos from Chris and Kathleen's wedding!
